In what could very well be the first documented crash of Mercedes-Benz's $200,000 Gullwing supercar, an SLS AMG had an unfortunate close encounter of the wrong kind with a humble yet destructive, Lada 112 'fastback', somewhere in Moscow.
From the videos of the incident we found on the net, it is revealed that a black Nissan Murano crossover was also somehow involved in the crash.
Interestingly, the license plate number of the car tells us that the Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG Gullwing was a press / demo car used in many photo shoots and videos in Russia

Aaah look, the Forester ain't that bad. I certainly wouldn't buy it but it's decent for what it is. It's not an oversized proper 4WD but still very useful, it drives pretty well, is quite roomy and comfortable and best of all I can probably fit surfboards inside instead of using roof racks.
Negatives are the visibility when changing lanes isn't the best and the sound system is rubbish. Like, totally house.
In terms of looks I don't mind it. It's a "legacy" car anyway which means it's due to be replaced soon enough. I'll keep it over winter, especially for the trips every 6 weeks to the colder part of NSW, then switch it out for a Subaru sedan or equivalent.

Saw this amazing car when I went out to eat yesterday, and couldn't resist getting a photo with a pretty blonde in front of it.
lol, they showed up like 20 seconds after I took this photo

The new Audi A1 is pretty sweet. Looks awesome and is the same size as a Mini. It seems a bit slower to accelerate than most people would like but that's not a major issue to everyone. Interesting to see how well it will sell. I think Audi have made a very smart move and personally I think it looks fantastic (though I am a clear Audi whore).

I would love them to sell it with diesel in the U.S., but that is a stretch. Although diesel is gaining steam here.

Thank you ladies and gentlemen, thank you for that warm welcome. Tonight, the verdict on the new Audi A1.
Not impressed.
As with all audis the ride will be too hard, the steering will have no feel and the base model will be much worse and 25% more expensive than the Polo its based on.
Also it will kill your soul. True story.
Instead why not go for something that you might actually enjoy to drive, the Mini for example, the oh so cute Fiat 500, the absolutely stunning Alfa Romeo MiTo or perhaps the beautiful to drive (and look at) Ford Fiesta.
Unless you're the kind of person who also drives a 4WD and therefore have no soul, you'll want something else.

So this is from all of the extensive reviews and testing you've done it? Yea, I thought so.
